Thank goodness we got all those extra days of rest and practice for the tournament that REALLY matters.

Last turnover was a wonderful example.of the officiating being such an incredible bullshit influence. Auburn was hugging our players all over the floor. The turnover happened because the Auburn guard wrapped our player all the way around his waste. Zero call anywhere. This type of shit happened the entire game....except when we went on our run
I'd takeDix, Bowen, Perkins, Murray, Sandfort back and Fran would actually hire a defensive coach and listen to his inputs.
PMAC is okay off the bench but Fran's natural inclination will be to start him.
Another year. Done watching the tournament on Thursday.

Seriously? I thought the officials called it even both ways.
LoL. Pat thinks he has handles. He doesn’t.
Iowa gave up 80 plus points to a terrible offensive team in Auburn. Defense matters.
Agree. Unless Fran ups his ability to recruit we are going to continue losing early to more athletic teams.
Get rid of Fran!! Tired of the same old shit show every year.
Glad to see the players manifest their frustration and anger into Twitter blather and poor play.
The annual Fran fade is complete.

So tired of this same movie every year.
No defense.
Not a physical team at all.
Iowa always gets pushed around by the more physical team.

Better to NOT make the tournament at all then to get bounced on the first day EVERY FVCKING YEAR.
Every year I miss just a few more games during the regular season. This is why. Hard to get invested when you know the inevitable ending.
Correct. And we get to listen to everyone whine about officiating instead of the real culprit. Iowa being a bunch of ****ing soft ass pussies. **** you fran. I am done with this shit.
I’d rather have him then PMac.
The just before halftime highlight where he let the guard drive by him and didn't even make any effort would also be a good talking point if a coach wanted to do such a thing.
Stop making excuses, we are just not good enough to advance. Face reality, the U of IA Athletic Department is fine with just making the tournament. Nothing is going to change.
Loser mentality. Blame the refs. Iowa got their ass kicked by better players/better athletes
Auburn will shoot 10% from 3 Saturday and struggle to score 50 pts for the entire game. Iowa is every opponent’s slump buster when it comes to scoring.
Iowa needs to move on from Fran and bring in the guy that just beat them. Open the checkbook.
These kind of performances in the tournament are getting tiresome 😕
They fought back…I’ll give them that

Connor had his moments just didn't improve enough to make a difference in any of Iowa's past 6 years, he fought though just fell short.
I will say this again, Fran is snake bit and his team will never reach the sweet 16 as long as he is the head coach at Iowa.

I disagree. I don’t think every game has been terribly officiated this year. The team likely still loses with the way they shot and played defense. IMO more mugging was allowed tonight tho, hence why it’s so frustrating as a fan.
I can understand wanting to vent. Looks like Notre Dame for some reason passed on Fran, so we don't have to worry about him going anywhere.
Can’t forget the chip on their shoulder from last years exit.
Say what you want, but the dude plays hard with all he has, 95% of the time. Can't say the same about most the other guys.....Close to a double double, probably led us in rebounds tonight.
Well now we know- if Fran does not have a two player of the year guys on the team he is a one and done coach. The only good news is CMAC has finally used up his eligibility.
It's ****ing disgusting. In almost 20 years we have 2 West titles and 2 men's bball tournament trophies.
you gotta adjust the offense as such. If they're playing that tight, more picks, backdoors, give and goes, etc. (Though our guys are probably too slow for a lot of that)
